The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ50X60-50S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 60mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service. A variable air cushion at both ends lets you tune end-of-stroke deceleration on site.
Few mini cylinders in this size class move serious loads, but the 50 mm bore here delivers about 981 N of push and 881 N of pull at 0.5 MPa, climbing to 1374 N at 0.7 MPa. Double-acting by design, it takes a cut of up to 50 mm from its extend stroke via the on-board stop screw, with variable cushioning softening both ends of travel.
AirTAC builds the MA barrel from stainless steel and rolls the aluminium covers onto it, while the rod carries a 20 um hard-chrome layer - a combination that survives damp, dusty and lightly washed environments. Because the magnet comes fitted as standard, CMSG or EMSG switches mount without any special-order piston. For sizing, treat roughly 589 N at 0.5 MPa as the practical working force; vertically that maps to lifting about 50 kg with a 2:1 margin.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MA-series datasheet. Barrel: stainless-steel tube (round-body, riveted rolling-packed construction); piston rod: carbon steel with 20µm hard-chrome plating; covers: aluminium alloy. Thread options: PT (blank) / G / NPT. Every MA-series cylinder ships with a built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG position sensors.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 982 N | 881 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | 1234 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

MA-family variants: MA / MAC (double acting ±cushion), MSA / MTA (single acting push / pull), MAD / MACD (double rod ±cushion), MAJ / MACJ (adjustable stroke ±cushion), MAR (cushioned with integrated F/U mount). Mounting accessories: FA flange, LB foot, SDB pivot; plus I and Y knuckles. Thread PT (blank) / G / NPT.
As an AGV docks, the cylinder extends 60 mm to index a pallet stop; the 50 mm trim window lets maintenance dial the stop position to the pallet size.
A materials bench cycles specimens at 30-800 mm/s; the cushion damps return impacts while the 881 N pull at 0.5 MPa resets the fixture.
On a bottling line the applicator head is height-set by the stop screw within the 50 mm window, letting one cylinder serve several bottle formats.
Step down to the MACJ40 for about 628 N at 0.5 MPa, or up to the MACJ63 when the job needs near 1558 N. The stop screw sets the extend position only - it will not hold a load against drift if pressure drops, so pair it with a locking valve where holding matters. FA flange and LB foot mounts, plus I and Y knuckles, fit the usual jig patterns, and the 1/4 inch ports keep plumbing simple.
Quick checklist
Push is about 981 N at 0.5 MPa and 1374 N at 0.7 MPa; pull is about 881 N at 0.5 MPa and 1233 N at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical peak near 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Air supply range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s, rod 16 mm with M14x1.5 thread, ports 1/4 inch.
No. Every MACJ ships with the magnet already installed, so CMSG, DMSG and EMSG reed or electronic switches clip onto the stainless barrel out of the box. That makes end-of-stroke confirmation on both the extended and retracted positions a plug-and-play job.
